Item 1.01 Entry into a Material Definitive Agreement

On June 12, 2007, VendingData Corporation entered into a Securities Purchase and Product Participation Agreement (“Participation Agreement”) with Elixir Group Limited, a Hong Kong company. Pursuant to the Participation Agreement, VendingData will issue to Elixir its equity securities and warrants, subject to Elixir’s placement on VendingData’s behalf of electronic gaming machines with gaming operators located in the general Asia region. The gaming machines will be placed with operators pursuant to a lease agreement between VendingData and the operators on a revenue sharing basis. Elixir will also sell VendingData the electronic gaming machines to be placed under the lease agreements. The Participation Agreement and the related transactions are subject to certain conditions, including the approval of the VendingData stockholders, and are expected to close in the third quarter of 2007.

According to the terms of the Participation Agreement, Elixir will “earn-in” an equity interest in VendingData based on its placement of gaming machines on a revenue sharing basis in specified numbers. The close of the transaction is subject to Elixir placing at least 1,000 gaming machines on behalf of VendingData. At the close, VendingData will issue to Elixir 25,000,000 common shares and warrants, with an exercise price of $2.65 per share, to purchase up to 88,000,000 additional common shares of VendingData. The warrants will vest and first become exercisable based on Elixir achieving certain gaming machine placement targets. Elixir will be entitled to earn a total of 55,000,000 VendingData common shares (inclusive of the 25,000,000 million shares issued at closing) and the warrants will vest and become exercisable subject to the placement of the target number of gaming machines as follows:

           
Gaming Machines Placed By Elixir   Shares Earned By Elixir   Warrants Earned By Elixir  
1,000
  25,000,000   0  
2,000
  15,000,000   22,000,000  
3,000
  10,000,000   22,000,000  
4,000
  5,000,000   22,000,000  
5,000
  0   22,000,000  
 
         

In addition to the above, VendingData will reduce by $1.00 per share the exercise price of 10 million warrants sold to Elixir in January 2007 (which currently have exercise prices ranging from $3.00 per share to $5.50 per share) when 2,000 gaming machines have been placed by Elixir and implement a further reduction of $1.00 per share in the exercise prices of the warrants at both the 3,000 and 4,000 placement levels.

Pursuant to the Participation Agreement, VendingData has agreed to expand its board of directors to eight and nominate to its board three persons appointed by Elixir, who shall be elected to the VendingData board effective as of the close under the Participation Agreement.

The Participation Agreement includes customary representations, warranties, and covenants by Elixir and VendingData. The transactions contemplated by the agreement are conditioned upon completion by Elixir of a satisfactory due diligence investigation of VendingData and the approval of the agreement and related transactions by VendingData’s stockholders, including the election of the Elixir nominees and an amendment to VendingData’s articles of incorporation to increase its authorized capital. The above transactions are expected to close, subject to VendingData shareholder approval and the other conditions to closing, during the third quarter of this year.

Pursuant to the Participation Agreement , James Crabbe and Mark Newburg, VendingData’s Chairman of the Board and Chief Executive Officer, respectively, have agreed to vote all of the shares of the company’s common stock under their control in favor of the transactions contemplated by the Participation Agreement for the purpose of obtaining any shareholder approvals required thereunder.

The exercise price of the warrants to be issued to Elixir and the number of shares issuable pursuant to the warrants are subject to adjustment for stock splits, dividends, rights offerings and other dilutive events. In addition, the number of shares of common stock for which the warrants may be exercised is subject to adjustment if VendingData issues shares of its common stock, or securities convertible into or exchangeable for shares of its common stock at a price less than the volume-weighted average price (“VWAP”) on the record date. Such an adjustment will be made every time VendingData issues common stock as a price below the VWAP; however, no adjustment will be made for shares issued in connection with the exercise of outstanding stock options and warrants.

In connection with the closing of the transactions contemplated by the Participation Agreement described above, VendingData will enter into a Registration Rights Agreement with Elixir. The Registration Rights Agreement requires VendingData to file a selling shareholder registration statement with the SEC within thirty (30) days following the closing of the transactions described in the VendingData, for purposes of registering the resale of the shares of VendingData’s common stock issued to Elixir pursuant to the transaction, including all shares that are issued, or may be issued, upon exercise of the warrants. Pursuant to the Registration Rights Agreement, the holders of the securities are also entitled to certain demand and piggyback registration rights.

The foregoing is only a summary of the Securities Purchase and Product Participation Agreement. A copy of the agreement is included as Exhibit 99.1, and incorporated herein by reference.
